## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it come with the attachment on pic number 4?**
A: No it didn’t.

**Q: Which meter has been determined to be best for roofing?**
A: Hello,

The ME5 will be the best small handheld for this purpose. It has the deepest signal penetration of any meter in this price range and this new model has five different sensitivity settings. 

Next step up is the Tramex Roof and Wall Scanner which uses the same technology but can penetrate up to 4 inches.
